  • #32 - Accelerating radiology with AI - Amine Korchi - Radiologist
    Sep 22 2024
    Radiology is the field of medicine that has experienced some of the most dramatic technological changes over the past decades. And given the record number of approvals for AI-based and machine-learning tools dedicated to radiology in Europe and the US (far ahead of all other medical specialties combined!), this trend is unlikely to slow down. Such rapid evolution can be attributed to the abundance of imaging data from clinical practice, and it already has a huge impact on the way radiologists work and care for patients. Faster workflows, enhanced diagnostic accuracy, and better informed clinical decisions… As we enter the era of multimodal AI models capable of simultaneously interpreting volumes of data from different formats (such as voice notes, images, videos, texts, etc.), we can only expect this evolution to accelerate even more in the coming months and years. As we seek to understand this transformation, we sit down with Amine Korchi, a Swiss radiologist, entrepreneur, investor, and renowned advocate for technological progress in radiology. In this eye-opening episode, Amine offers us a rich perspective on: the evolution of medical imaging, from static 2D images, through dynamic 3D, to AI the impact of AI on the training of physicians and their specialization current use cases of AI in radiology and their impact on patient care the barriers to its adoption and the fears AI raises among radiologists future developments of AI in radiology and their promises An episode to help us understand one of the major technological revolutions in medicine - and one we're far from seeing the end of! Timeline: 00:02:39 - Amine’s background as a radiologist, entrepreneur, and investor in clinical AI 00:06:10 - How radiology transformed over the past 20 years 00:13:43 - Is ultra specialization in medicine a good thing? 00:17:39 - Concrete use cases of AI in clinical radiology 00:21:50 - Barriers to AI adoption in radiology 00:27:44 - Future developments of AI in radiology 00:33:17 - The tasks that AI will replace in radiology 00:36:16 - Impact of AI on future radiologists’ training What we also talked about with Amine: Intravenous urography CT Scan Iseult MRI machine Tumor board GPT4-o Cerebriu Smart Reporting Gleamer Owkin Kicky Van Leeuwen Hugh Harvey Microlearning We mentioned with Amine some of the past episodes of the series: #1 - Measuring your arterial age to prevent heart diseases - Ted Baldwin - Imageens #16 - Making ultrasound portable to transform medical imaging - Ohad Arazi - Clarius As mentioned by Amine during the episode, you can learn more about the latest in radiology through The Imaging Wire newsletter or on Radiology Business.

  • #31 - Measuring sleep remotely - Soumya Dash - Sleepiz
    Sep 15 2024
    Sleep is the resting state that nature has chosen for us by default. Long overlooked or even neglected, it is one of the keys to good health, alongside nutrition, physical exercise, and mental and emotional health. Moreover, it is an excellent indicator of our overall health: when our sleep is disturbed, it usually means at least one of these four components is affected. It thus seems essential to be able to measure the quality of our sleep while minimizing the interaction or invasiveness of the measurement method with our body. And that is precisely the promise of Soumya Dash and his company Sleepiz! Based on radar technology, this Swiss startup has developed a compact device to place on a bedside table, capable of remotely clinically measuring sleep and detecting potential disorders such as sleep apnea or insomnia. No electroencephalogram to wear on the head, no pulse oximeter on the finger, nor any wearable around the wrist: everything is measured from the bedside table and without any direct interaction with the subject measured. In this surprising episode, we dive into the fascinating world of sleep, a realm with many secrets still to be uncovered! Soumya shares with us insights into the technology his team has developed, the difference between consumer-grade and medical-grade sleep monitors, and a glimpse into the future of healthcare in this field! Timeline: 00:02:21 - How Soumya came across sleep monitoring and why it matters 00:12:45 - How the Sleepiz device monitors sleep 00:18:20 - Relevant use cases and target indications of sleep disorders 00:22:35 - Differences between consumer-grade vs. medical-grade sleep monitors 00:25:35 - B2C and B2B business models 00:37:43 - Past milestones and challenges ahead What we also talked about with Soumya: ETH Zürich ISO 13485 norm Class IIa medical device 510(k) FDA clearance Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Oura Ring WHOOP IDUN Technologies SmartCardia As mentioned by Soumya during the episode, you can learn more about sleep and the current state of research in the book Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams by Matthew Walker. You will find more information about Sleepiz on their website and you can follow their activities on LinkedIn. If you want to get in touch with Soumya, you can do so via LinkedIn.
